Hello everybody !

What is a SIKACOCO ?

That’s a typical sweet from Guadeloupe where i'm from in the French West Indies. It is made with grated coconut and sugar cane. The special thing about this sweet is his mystical pink "head" provided by an add of cochineal who gives it this pink color. We call it "sikakoko a tèt' woz", (pronounce "seekah coco ah tet woz"), pink headed sikacoco...

About this album :

This album is a caribbean tribute to James Yancy a.k.a J DILLA.
It’s a 22 tracks beats album entirely done with the DONUTS SAMPLES used by the great late J DiILLA for his Donuts LP on Stonesthrow Records. All the DRUMS are also sampled from J DILLA productions for various artists.
No extra samples, no synth, no computer, just a crate full of DILLA samples and productions on vinyl and that drum machine.

I would like to dedicate this album to J DILLA and the Yancey Familly, to Detroit, to Guadeloupe and to all the J DILLA fans all around the world...
